Tom Suozzi and Laura Gillen’s Shutdown Now Longest Ever

Out of touch Tom Suozzi, Laura Gillen, and the rest of the Democrats just made history for all the wrong reasons. They now own the longest government shutdown ever because they’d rather protect illegal immigrants and appease the woke fringe than pay American families and reopen the government.

• Food assistance at risk: Tom Suozzi and Laura Gillen put millions of low-income moms and families on edge as food stamps, like SNAP and WIC, are threatened.
• Troop pay jeopardized: Suozzi and Gillen played political games with military paychecks.
• Federal workers going unpaid: Families across the country are missing pay thanks to Suozzi and Gillen’s hostage-taking.
• Air travel threatened: Air traffic controllers are working without pay, risking delays and disruptions nationwide.

“Out of touch Tom Suozzi, Laura Gillen, and the rest of the Democrats put ideology ahead of families and paychecks. Food stamps are on the chopping block, federal workers are missing pay, troop pay was thrown into uncertainty, and air travel is at risk as air traffic controllers go without. Suozzi and Gillen are now responsible for the longest shutdown in history and Americans won’t forget who did this to them.” —  NRCC Spokeswoman Maureen O’Toole
